Cold Steel US Naval Officer's Sword

While we heartily approve of our Armed Forces wearing dress swords and sabers, we thought it was a shame that only unsharpened, poorly tempered swords made of weak stainless steel are all that's available.

That's why we decided to make our own reproductions. They're faithful in every detail to government specifications; they offer highly polished blades, appropriate etching and quality hilts and scabbards.

The only real changes we have made are to drastically improve their performance as swords by forging them from 1055 Carbon Steel and properly heat treating them to a tough spring temper before sharpening.

While non issue, the sword is also available per Lynn Thompson's insistence with a ray skin grip (#88MNAL).
